Materials Data on Nb2Co4P3 by Materials Project
Abstract
Nb2Co4P3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Nb2+ sites. In the first Nb2+ site, Nb2+ is bonded to six P3- atoms to form distorted NbP6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with four equivalent NbP6 pentagonal pyramids, corners with twelve CoP4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent NbP5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent NbP6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with eight CoP4 tetrahedra, and faces with two equivalent NbP6 pentagonal pyramids. There are two shorter (2.75 Å) and four longer (2.77 Å) Nb–P bond lengths. In the second Nb2+ site, Nb2+ is bonded to six equivalent P3- atoms to form distorted NbP6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with twelve CoP4 tetrahedra, corners with six equivalent NbP5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with nine CoP4 tetrahedra, edges with three equivalent NbP5 trigonal bipyramids, and faces with two equivalent NbP6 pentagonal pyramids. All Nb–P bond lengths are 2.74 Å. In the third Nb2+ site, Nb2+ is bonded to five P3- atoms to form distorted NbP5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with six NbP6 pentagonal pyramids, corners with ten CoP4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent NbP6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with eight CoP4 tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent NbP5more »
